No there is not a risk (from my understanding). Immunity applies to anywhere on the body - assuming the same virus type.
Im curious if the same would apply for HSV1 antibodies... say If one partner had HSV1 genitally and the other had it orally... is there a risk of contracting it in another place for either of them?
Antibodies from herpes will prevent that type from setting up shop anywhere else. If that were not the case, many people with recurrent herpes would be covered with herpes lesions, just from showering. I therefore advise that there is no problem for either partner if both have herpes 2 infection. You might want to consult Dr. Handsfield at the TD Forum a well.
Take care.

The latex gloves one must have been written on the 1st of April. From what I have read, you should just not have oral sex when their is an abvious breakout of lesions.
I don't think Americans do irony!
Loved your response.
